You never know when photographic inspiration will strike. This bin of nuts at the grocery store this week inspired this photo.

Find No. 2

I have always loved beautifully illustrated children's books, so when Mallory and I stumbled upon a wonderful children's book store this week, I had to buy a few for the "someday" grandchildren. You can never start your collection too soon.

I love children's books, too -- you can never start collecting too early! Anthropologie --- what fun and always some inspiration. I look at sewer covers, too ... some have really great decorations. Love the nuts and the beach scene -- gorgeous. I always loved the beach this time of year ... usually had it to myself! Happy New Year!

oh i love children's books too! i started buying some of my favorites from when i was a kid, on ebay. the billy and blaze series. i used to check those out from the school library as a kid, every library day!

How neat that we both found inspiration from ordinary things. I did a piece for PAF using a Potato Chip. I must say your nut photo is wonderful.Sewer covers...now that's not something I would normally think to photograph.Oh that beach shot is pretty. Is that snow or white sand?

I love that nut scooper....so colorful. And I am totally in love with Anthropologie...yikes it is a photographer's dream store. And I love children's books and their illustrations....got one for you "The Day the Crayons Quit."...delightful!! I bet it was chilly on that beach, gorgeous shot!!

I love that scoop you have pictured with the almonds! So pretty. Also, I love sewer covers too. I thought I was the only one. Very pretty beach picture. I live on the coast of New England and it always amazes me to see pictures of the great lakes that look so much like an ocean.

1st, I love the name of your blog. Do you really have paisley rain boots? Mine have pink princess kitties on them. I normally wear them just in the winter, I'm sooo grateful to middle son and his wife for their gift in 2012. I want that scooper, if only to feast my eyes upon it! I like all your random shots, which I might not have seen if you had not visited me. thank you for your comment! I will return.
